Design, print, and construct your own 3-D communities!

This easy-to-use tool enables children to design buildings on the computer and turn them into 3-D paper cutouts. Children can design their own scaled-down versions of communities from different historical periods or recreate their own towns. This flexible program combines the power of technology with the proven effectiveness of hands-on manipulatives.

With Community Construction Kit you will:

	Design and construct 3-D models of buildings and communities from around the world and throughout history
	Learn history, geography, math, science, and language arts as they learn about other cultures and ways of life
	Combine the use of technology with hands-on activities
	View and learn about four building styles: Medieval, Native American, Colonial America, and Contemporary America in an on-line photo gallery

Community Construction Kit includes ready-made doors, windows, and other architectural elements for students to use in designing their own buildings. It also includes pre-made buildings, a photo gallery of buildings, floor-size maps of real communities, people, and animals to complete your community.

	Choose from dozens of building types and roof shapes, then add windows, doors, and other elements.
	Print buildings in multiple sizes.
